Thing is if I ease on the throttle it revs fine, but If I just hit the throttle to the floor the car dies instead of revving up. If I ease the rev's up slowly by easing on the throttle, then take my foot off the throttle fast; the idle will fall and car dies. I switched the MAF/Intake off my friends 2g (J13eck) and put it on mine and it stopped the dieing from releasing the throttle fast, but still died if I pressed the throttle fast.

I still haven't checked what's cutting up my timing belt yet, sicne I cant even drive the car ### it wont go into gear, but the belt has gotten to whatever is rubbing my timing belt as cut it up to the point that it needs a new one now. Also I took my non working PS out of the car and the squealing noise didn't happen when I revved slowly, car sounded fine unlike the other nights.

Here is the timing belt wear....
